We made it in 2006, and had our best showing at the championships. If my memory serves me correct (I really should remember this...) we got picked in the later half of the first round, and lost in the quarters due to our teammates shooter breaking catastrophically in the first match. In 2007 by the end of GTR we had a competitive robot that would have done well in Atlanta, but we had already been to 3 competitions and turned down our invitation to the Championship (from our EI award in New Hampshire).
I must say last years robot was probably their best built robot yet, and had their best drive team in years. Josh was a dominating driver and could have done really well in Atlanta. If this year's drive team is nearly as good, watch out Rochester and Waterloo!
